EDC Basics Bags, Belts, and Keychains

This post on EDC Basics Bags, Belts, and Keychains is a list of items to help organize and carry all your everyday carry items. I have specifically left holsters off this list, as some individuals that read this site live or work in non-permissive environments, and others choose to not carry a gun everyday.

That is not MY choice, I choose to carry whenever I can, but this post is not for me, it is for you the reader.

I hope that these items give you some ideas, or solve a problem you are having.

I encourage you to think about your situation and devise a group of tools and skills that are likely to keep you safe and make you more productive. If the kit makes your life easier you are more likely to have it with you when your life depends on it.

I could not find a belt that worked with my needs, so I bought some 1.5 buckles, webbing, and velcro and sewed my own.

My rigged up hand sewn belt has been working well for over a year. It is not perfect and I’d love a custom belt with a cobra buckle, but it was cheap, and I can wear it through the metal detector at work without having to undo my belt.

Like all my other posts, you can click the picture to view this item on Amazon. I do make a small commission if you purchase from this link, but it does not cost you any more money and the commissions pay for the hosting of this site and a small amount of the time it takes to find the information I share here.
